[Intro: Caleb Shomo]
I, uh... I don't really know what to say Hello, how you doing Haha, I uh... I feel like I'm in a fever dream, I don't know what the fuck is going on right now, haha... Me and my uh, my father, who was here tonight were not too long ago talking about how, uh, my first ever concert was here when I was like five years old, ever, right here in the Schot... Haha, and uh, you know, fucking, twenty-seven years later, we are headlining the fucking Schottenstein Center, holy shit! Now, who out there has seen Beartooth live before? Anybody? That's very good
Now, do we have any first timers here in the house? First timers, where are you? Now, as you might have guessed, with this being our hometown, I have played a lot of fucking shows in Columbus, Ohio. Lot of shows. And I have a feeling that we have some of the loudest singers that we have ever played to in the fucking house tonight, so. By show of hands, how many singers are in the house? Singers, where are you? How about like, do we have any professional singers? Like, the best singers in the fucking world, anybody? I see like three or four. Now... Now, I'm gonna call bullshit on this, now. I feel like, I feel like I got about half of you to put your hands up. Now, here's what we're gonna do. On the count of three, you are going to make the loudest noise you have ever made in your fucking life, so take a deep breath. One, two, three! You see? That's all singing is. That's all this whole show is about. It's about letting go
I know the world is fucking, we all know that life can be absolutely fucked. But here? Here at a Beartooth show? Oh, that is not the case. That is not the case. We are here to provide you with sanctuary. We are here to provide you with a place to let all of your shit go. Just like I said earlier. It's magical, I promise you. So, all I ask, is you believe, just a little bit. And what can happen, when you sing as loud as you fucking can, 'cause I promise you, it has changed my entire fucking life. So. I have been waiting for one whole fucking year to play this very song that I'm about to play. And I have played it many times to many audiences. But tonight? This is gonna be the loudest it has ever been. So, let's have some fun with it. Let's see if you know this one. Ah-he-hem
It's "Mr. Brightside", you know it. So sing it as loud as you can
[Verse 1: Caleb Shomo & Crowd]
I'm comin' out of my cage and I've been doin' just fine
Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all
It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke and she's taking a drag
And they're goin' to bed and my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head, but she's touching his
[Pre-Chorus: Caleb Shomo]
Chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
[Chorus: Caleb Shomo]
Jealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
[Transition into Look The Other Way]
